    About the Course

    The Raspberry Pi uses a variety of input/output devices based on protocols such as HDMI, USB, and Ethernet to communicate with the outside
    world. In this class you will learn how to use these protocols with other external devices (sensors, motors, GPS, orientation, LCD screens etc.) to
    get your IoT device to interact with the real world. Most physical devices use analog signals; however computer hardware is digital so in this
    class you will learn how these signals are converted back-and-forth and how this must be considered as you program your device. The basic
    design of a sensor-actuator system will also be covered. You will also learn how to build more sophisticated hardware system...

    The course was pretty interesting and I learnt a lot of new things from this course. I have gained confidence to try something new b myself after completing this course and hope I do so in the future

    Course is great, but it takes forever to grade classmates. For example, by the end of the last week homework , I had to wait two weeks till someone was available to grade.

    This course is a very interesting monologue of Dr Harris about Raspberry Pi, Python and GPIO. There is no MOOC in this video collection. No way of asking questions to the instructor, no forum and you can not even give feed back on peer graded assignments. The library used for GPIO is not the most current, but it works. There is a whole week about using Twitter which in the end it is not required. Not sure if it has changed, but getting Twitter API keys takes time, as you need to fill some on-line forms and wait for those to be reviewed. But, this course makes you explores a broad range of topics not usually found on short videos or tutorials.

    Good basic course to know the Raspberry Pi. It has interesting information, like connecting the raspbery to Twitter, using the Pi Camera and moving a Servomotor. It could be deeper in this topic, but it just give you the basic (and enough for the course), so hopefully in other course we get to use this stuff better

    The course with Prof. Ian Harris is great.

    But, if this course respects the plagiarism honor code, it should be handled better.

    I found some learners just use youtube video link from other, even many years ago. I also happened to peer-reviewing another learner using my uploaded image as his/her assignment file.

    I liked the course a lot, it gives important basic information to get the learner ready to start working with IoT projects, specifically raspberry pi.

    Some of the assignments require the raspberry pi device.

    Good introduction. Has many small code mistakes and doesn't go too deep into any topic, but at the same time provides a guaranteed way to jumpstart your familiarity with Raspberry Pi. Fun and enjoyable.

    The course is not very complete as in some programs aren't fully explained. But the course is good for someone who is willing to go further with the help of the internet.

    Lack of discussion forums impacted learning experience. Other than that, solid technical content and good presentation.

    Again, we should get more exercises, especially on networking (I don't know how to get a specific info from a web site)

    There could have been more coding assignments or quizzes. The lectures were very informative.

    Needs to be a little more technical and kick up the level of difficulty a notch or two.
